It happens at most once or twice a day. I hit cancel and things continue to work, so I think Benny's explanation is right on; it's really some other transient error. -Eric ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
Re: [MlMt] Password popup box
Benny, Somehow MailMate misinterprets a repeated error as a possible password issue (server are not always good at telling the email client exactly what the problem is). First try updating to the latest beta of MailMate (in the Software Update preferences pane). For what it’s worth I have experienced similar issues (on Runbox) on and off for the last couple of years (always using latest beta). MM throws a wobbly for a few minutes or an hour, but it always seems to go back to normal again after a while.

Sometimes several times a day, sometimes not for many days, I will suddenly get popups to enter the password for the account. Here’s a [screenshot.](https://www.dropbox.com/s/kpy03yafvmlt1in/Popup%20Password.png?dl=0). It’s mainly just annoying as the password autocompletes and I can just hit okay, but I guess I’d like to understand why it’s happening now and wasn’t before. I did change the server address thinking that might be the issue. Somehow MailMate misinterprets a repeated error as a possible password issue (server are not always good at telling the email client exactly what the problem is). First try updating to the latest beta of MailMate (in the Software Update preferences pane). If it still happens then open the Activity Viewer (⌥⌘0) and keep it open (this enables logging). After you see the issue then use “Help ▸ Send Server Logs” and I'll see if MailMate could behave differently given how it fails. -- Benny ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
